Opening the Book to me (Chapter Three)

Chapter Three

Oh how deep she dug me

She moved Earth and created the grave for me to fall in

To recap

I graduated top of my high school class

Well second, but that’s at the top

Fell in love with a sweetheart whom first embraced me

She was there when LaSalle sent me letter

“You goin to college and I’ll be talking white”

Sad thinking correct English is only identified with those

From the caucus mountains

The life I had known was soon to be erased

She came so close to erasing those dreams

When she told me

She was one with another from another

And to think I was to make her my bride

Combined with house-hold filled with saturated ignorance

Forced to the point where my maker would hold me

Or cast me away

Yes this day was to be last

Yet, the “Unexpected Assassin” missed his mark

No train arrived to carve up the suicidal turkey

I never looked back.

I decide to fight the famine decimating my existence

Since dreams of the future had once fed me

I’ll dismiss any obstacle as if it was Satan himself before me

No one has made it this far before me

September 1990 started a new chapter in history

The college years

End Chapter 3

Opening the book to me is so raw that all you have to do is read and you clearly understand where eyeq is taking you.

In chapter one I feel the energy of a writer born and you clearly get the abortion factor and you see the struggle. Chapter 2 was a precursor to chapter three. the defining of eyeq. his talent I say is so raw because rarely do you get to see the outpouring of a man destined to be great! as long as you keep giving it I will be a fan.
